Declutter for the Divineys II Is Coming

Clear out your closets and help a family the community has adopted as its own.

Got some great yard sale goods, but not the time or energy to hold your own yard sale? Why Declutter for the Divineys?

Organizers will be accepting items at the vacant Bloom at Village Center at Belmont Greene from Sept. 15-23. Donations may be left from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday; and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.

The sale is set for the following week from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 29 at the Bloom. Organizers have planned a festival-type atmosphere with face painting, balloon animals, food, raffles, music and more.
